💡 THE GAME-CHANGER: EXPANDING BEYOND DETAILING

In this Episode, Andrew and Ercan dive deep into the one move that can skyrocket your auto business , adding Paint Protection Film (PPF) and Tint Services. What started as a conversation about new shop skills quickly turned into a masterclass on growth, competition, and customer service excellence.

The hosts share real-world lessons on how investing in PPF training transformed their outlook , and why staying comfortable means staying stuck. If you’re only washing cars, you’re leaving serious money on the table.

The Duo breaks down why shops lose customers over bad service and how professionalism wins every time. Andrew recalls the hilarious (and painful) stories of messy shops, ghosted clients, and unexpected reviews that turned into teachable moments.

The message is clear:

Be the shop that customers remember for Respect, Not Regret.
